Thank you all for your fast replies!

Damn, DropDrawers is carbon app! So I will have to write to SigSoftware and hope they will implement this in their next version.... If they only had a beautiful icon...

You can put a new icon on the application in the meantime. BTW Darkshadow, great tip. You should post it to the How-To forum.

is it possible to completely hide an app in X.1 so that it doesn't even show up in the dock?

thanks,

The Dock has taken the place of the Application Menu, so if it doesn't show up in the Dock, I don't know how you would go back to it (unless you wanted it running only in the background).

not that i know of. in order to have the app not show up in the dock, it has to be written for that. this is only from what i've read (numerous posts) and i may be wrong, but im pretty sure that the application has to have that option built into it, and that its not just a universal option.

when you have the open app just hold the option key and click somewhere OUTSIDE of that application, finder for example and it will hide.

keeping an open app from appearing in the Dock is to erase the icon, you'll just get a blank space in the dock!!!!

I know, I ain't good at this system changing stuff!!!
